Jumping on the queer bandwagon certainly hurt them, but I think their change in merchandising and marketing did more than anything to hurt their business.

There were several medium-ticket items I normally would have bought at Penny’s earlier this year, but I went elsewhere, knowing how the company had taken a turn toward depravity and become homo activists.

I particularly hate it when some old company with a long American history and heritage, and with whom I’ve done business with for decades, goes into the sewer this way. But once they do, I cut them no slack. They can go crash-and-burn to oblivion as far as I care.

LMAO!!! You really think their sales and subsequent stock price collapse is due to their gay marriage stance and not the fact that their new CEO has completely tried to change the JCP retail pricing model? Yeah it couldn’t have anything to do with three analysts downgrading the stock in March and the repeated battering of the new CEO for his re-org and pricing schemes. Financial fundamentals? That’s just crazy talk... No it has to be about gay marriage. Everyone knows investors don’t want to just make money and care more about social issues. Correlation does not equal causation.

These genius’ also decided they didn’t need clerks anymore. Not sure if they’ve noticed who’s shopping there, besides us. Not sure they can operate a checkout by themselves.

The pity of it is the real losers will be average Americans who own JCP stock thru their mutual funds and don’t even know it. On the other hand, the metrosexuals in the boardroom who instituted gaytopia will award themselves 50 million dollar parachutes on their way out.

JCP is about the only “quality” clothing store option within 1 hr of where we live. Alternatives include Walmart, Goodwill and Salvation Army.

Mrs NHD has gone there a few times over the past several weeks. What were standard items are now gone from the shelves. We expect it to be closed within, at most, months.

Has nothing to do with Ellen or gays. It’s all about their foolish decision to stop having sales. Customers like and shop at sales.

Why is Target stock acting differently? They have really hopped on the homo bandwagon.

F15, can you post their chart? (TGT)

I stop going to JCP several years ago. The store I was using was always hot as hell and it took for ever to check out even if there were not that many in the check out line.

They likely never put a single interracial couple in their ads, but they rush to put two dudes that bone each other?

JC Penny’s is for geezers anyway.

This is going to be the only method by which we are going to stop the absolute assault on our children and out society by a depraved and perverted deluge.

Laws have been passed by the dozens to protect these perverts from even a word being spoken against them or any action taken to protect our families from their abominable public displays. It will be increasingly difficult as more businesses and Liberal institutions try to enhance so-called “diversity”.

There is no need to open one’s self to the vile attacks of these perversions or their supporters. Simply take note and avoid supporting or buying their goods with vigor just as people have with JCP. Make the competitors of the slime supporters rich.

Homosexuals are quite able to support their own abberrations with retail outlets and stores just like porn addicts, SMs and the like without blatantly flaunting their condition before our children and grandchildren.

Boycott works. In this case, it’s gravely important to future generations. This is the view of someone who has had their gag reflex activated more than once lately by disgusting public displays that most heterosexuals would be ashamed to do in public. It seems that our “first gay President” has opened the floodgates on this kind of behavior in public places where young children are present.

Who gave any company permission to screw with the lexicon?

The use and meaning of words will be determined by the general Culture over an extended period of time.

It is not just the Gay Models, it is the progressive leftist organizations they support, here is a prior post I made regarding JC Penneys:

Penneys is tainted with far left/progressive groups, when I canceled my charge card in February, I searched for any conservative group and found none. What I did find was located on Penneys “Heritage of Giving Page” ALL Progressive Left Social Justice groups such as:

Human rights Campaign: Working for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equal Rights

National Urban League: “Occupy the Vote” openly supports Obama and Calls on ALEC to Support Repeal of “Kill-At-Will” and Voter I.D. Laws

NCLR (National Council of Laraza): nuff said

Several other groups listed, did not bother to check out, as all the names were progressive left groups.

What other reaction to their obvious backing of homosexuality would J.C.Penney expect?
